With tonight’s release we’ve given our “favorites” system an upgrade and decided that it’s also a good time for a name change.
You’ve told us you’re using the favorites feature for all kinds of things. Some of you use it to keep track of songs you want to research, some use it as a purchase wish list, others use it as a public expression of their musical preferences, while others still use it as a history of the very best songs they’ve found while listening.
Since there’s such diversity in how this features is being used, we’ve decided to recast the system as “bookmarks” and to relaunch the favorites page as a musical profile. Don’t worry — all your old “favorites” are still there. We’ve just given them a new home.
At the same time we’ve added some new features to the page. Now your stations automatically appear on the page and you can now keep a list of bookmarked artists in addition to songs.
